Where is the stream bitrate chooser?

Peter Matthews 9 years ago 0
From a web search it appears the option to choose from From different streams with different bitrates, when offered by the station, was previously in this app. Has it been removed and if so why? I purchased the pro version of this app. I need low bitrate streams when not home so I don't blow past my data cap! I don't want to go back to TuneIn but will be forced to without a bitrate option.

Unfortunately we don't have it available on PC YET. :)  We do have plans to provide a PC version that works in sync with your phone.

Authenticated stream are currently supported by XiiaLive. Links that require login will now prompt the user to login. Also, adding stations that require authentication can be saved securely in your favorites and will not require authenticating again when playing it.

favorites management

Krzysztof Byszewski 12 years ago updated by paul 9 years ago 4

Juts one more thing from me regarding favorites  It's nice the way it categorizes the stations I picked but would be nice to switch into "folder" mode in a sense that I would like to be able to create a folder like sky.fm and put all sky.fm radios I like in there and for example DI folder for Digital imported.


You might keep the current favorites if it's working for others, just consider adding alternative way that you might switch in settings.


Thanks Guys!

Definitively a great idea.  I think having a folders feature that is separate from genre/category would be good to have.


I think adding an option to view by Genre or by folders would be good to have.

Please add "Bluetooth stop" in addition to "headset stop"

Anonymous 14 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 12 years ago 4
Can you add a "Bluetooth stop" option? If enabled music will stop when Bluetooth disconnects. Just like how the built in Music app works.

I always listen to music via Bluetooth(A2DP) in my car. When I turn off my car the radio will carry on playing via the phone's speaker.

Otherwise this app is superb. Keep it up!!!
Answer

This feature has been added to update v2.1.6.

How to enable BT disconnect stop music:
1. First pair your BT device with your phone.
2. Go to XiiaLive->Settings->Advanced users->Bluetooth options.
3. You should see your paired device there.  Press on the paired device and select which actions you want to take when BT connects and disconnects.

Would you consider adding a surround sound effect or 3D effect to the app?

MihaiSmig 13 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 13 years ago 0
I used to stream music to my old windows phone via a GSP Player application that had surround sound or 3D effect abilities. The resulting sound was awesome. Would you consider adding this capability to the player?
Answer
Jona (Lead Developer) 13 years ago
We would like to add all the supported EQ and sound FX supported by the newer Android OS versions. If these FXs are supported by the OS you should see this feature available soon. Otherwise it might take a little longer to have this feature supported.
